Megawhite: the new way to whiten your teeth

Megawhite is the latest treatment to take the beauty world by storm. Celebrities including the stars of Hollyoaks, The Only Way is Essex, and Britain’s Next Top Model have all used and endorsed Megawhite because it whitens teeth with fantastic results.

What is Megawhite?

Many tooth whitening treatments use hydrogen peroxide to remove stains, but some studies have shown that this chemical may be carcinogenic and could weaken the teeth. Megawhite is different. It uses sodium bicarbonate to gently, yet thoroughly, lift stains out of the deep pores in your teeth.

How does Megawhite work?

The sodium bicarbonate solution is applied to the teeth via a gum shield which is inserted into the mouth. A laser is then directed at the gum shield where it activates the whitening formula, causing it to release oxygen and pressure. The oxygen and cleaning agents alter the colour of the teeth from brown/yellow to white without affecting the structure of the tooth’s enamel.

What happens after the treatment?

The treatment process shouldn’t last any longer than around 20 minutes so it’s the kind of treatment you can squeeze into your lunch hour! Everyone is different, but most people can expect to achieve average results of around 9 shades lighter, depending on the severity of the staining before treatment.

After treatment the pores on your teeth will remain open for around 30 minutes so it’s best to avoid eating until after that time, and try to stick to light coloured foods and drinks for the first 24 hours after treatment.

Most clients tend to have around three or four Megawhite treatments per year, usually before special occasions. The results are fairly long lasting, depending on your regular eating and drinking habits. If you enjoy red wine and coffee but want white teeth then you’ll probably need to repeat the Megawhite treatment more often.
